Who is Jacqueline Elliott?

Jacqueline Elliott grew up in California, in what she said was "a very, very ugly place" on the on YouTube in 2023.

Her childhood was marked by her parents' divorce, with her father moving to Mexico and Jacqueline initially staying with her mother in the Golden State.

She later moved to live with her father, whom she described as a "failed entrepreneur".

Witnessing her father's repeated business failures made Jacqueline "very ballsy" and unafraid to take risks.

Early career in finance

Her career journey started in the finance industry.

She took classes in Oklahoma and worked in the mortgage industry during a time when "anybody could get finance".

Jacqueline said: "I took a couple you know finance classes in Oklahoma...

"The mortgage industry and all of the real estate back then — anybody could get finance.

"I don't even know how I qualify to get finance, [but] back then I did."

Despite making good money, Jacqueline's competitive nature drove her to constantly challenge herself.

She sold her house and moved into an apartment to prove she could succeed in a new environment.

Automotive industry & meeting Andy

Jacqueline started woking in auto sales finance, which is where she met her future husband Andy.

She said: "I moved over there to Oklahoma and that's how I ended up meeting Andy.

"We didn’t work at the same dealership but we would work for the same dealer group. I was in finance and he was a used car manager."

I was always asking [Andy]... why are you still where you are? Like, what is it about it? Why don't you go? Why don't you do something better?

Jacqueline and Andy got married on July 4, 2008.

Her influence on Andy's life and career has been significant.

He told the 1%ER podcast that when they first got together, she set out clear rules and expectations, providing the structure he needed to reach the next level on his business journey.

She said: "I was always asking him... why are you still where you are? Like, what is it about it? Why don't you go? Why don't you do something better?

"You're a great leader, you're a great closer, you're amazing at what you do."

How Andy and Jacqueline made their millions

Jacqueline and Andy took a significant risk by quitting their jobs in 2019 to start their own coaching company focused on sales and leadership.

The bold move paid off — they managed to achieve a nine-figure business within three years.

They built their company — The Elliott Group, based in Scottsdale, Arizona — from the ground up, taking risks and living below their means to achieve their goals.

Jacqueline brings essential organizational and strategic skills to their partnership, while Andy excels in sales and motivation.

Andy has described her as "the brains of the operation," while jokingly referring to himself as "just the face".
